Sound proofing listening room


My listening room is in the basement. My problem is that my wife above can hear too much, always telling me to turn it down, I was wandering if anybody has any cheap ideas to help keep the music in my basement.I do know the the space between the ceiling and floor are not insulated and I'm planning on doing that. But I'd like to do more. Treatment for the ceiling in my room is ok. Anything is ok cause it is my room to do with what i want. So I welcome all suggestions.

Philefreak your problem is similar to mine. I posted a thread for advise for a loft problem-wanted to keep the sound in the loft area. I did come to a solution I hope will work. I am going to buy some screens that you use as dividers and change the curtain material inside the dividers to something more tweaky. As suggested above insulation will probably be your first step. Good luck in your project. Bret
